It can be modified a little bit. Basically, it can be modified to say:

Our value judgments are not what maintains our value and nothing but a perfect perception can see our true exact value since it needs perfect judgement according to a perfect standard.

I don't think Thomas Aquinas said "therefore...", but rather presented the case probably very well.

I have to read some Thomas Aquinas now.

Wow God has been proven for this long, yet people, are still asking for proof.

Aristotle and Aquinas both proved God long ago.
